Number 9 : keeping eye contact

Staring at your dog for too long is a no, no – especially, with strange dogs! Eye contact between dogs is the way by which they set their roles and dominance within the pack. At often times, eye contact turns fatal – be it a dogfight for position or simply connoting aggression! Therefore, eye contact may confuse your dog! Although, they will tolerate you as an owner, do not practice it often! When it comes to strange dogs, remind yourself to avoid it altogether as you never know what kind of reaction you might trigger!
